The owners of River House in Belfast have said the 'grade A' office and retail development will open in October.

Castleforge Partners in London has been carrying out a major refurbishment on the High Street site, which will have space for over 1,000 staff.

Castleforge said the finished product will have "double-height reception area with highly efficient office layout options, social and breakout zones".

Rachael Pittaway, developer at Castleforge Partners, which bought the building in 2015, said: "River House is at the forefront of the business evolution in Belfast and represents a new wave of office and commercial space in the city centre. We believe there is nothing that matches our offering."
